This won't work. For now, PyMOL needs to be recompiled for my DX-related
code to work.

(I think you mean the current CVS version of PyMOL .. the code on my
webpage is synchronized with that, rather than 0.95)
This, on the other hand, should work. The fact that the recompiled PyMOL
works is a good sign.

I think you're right.

This is very strange. I know you said that you installed all of the files
I listed, but are you *sure* that you installed my version of importing.py
as modules/pymol/importing.py? The error here is that it can't find
importing.loadable.DX, but if you have my version of importing.py, that
shouldn't be a problem.
If really do have an up-to-date version of my code, we should probably
figure out what's wrong off-list.
Thanks,
